why dont you mess something up that afterwards you can just fix for cheap and have a spare engine?

Coleman fuel is called white gasoline. It is basically pure gasoline without auto additives and dyes.

Not sure that's quite right. White gasoline is a high octane gas used for marine engines.
Coleman fuel is closer to a highly refined Kerosene.
Gasoline is explosive but Kerosene is not. It needs a much higher temp to ignite.
 
lol i guess it was, either way, i'm sure some people that didnt see it got a kick out of it :hehe:
 
trust me, coleman camping fuel is NOT kerosene in any way, its high-octane racing fuel but better.

this thread did receive a revival, but the engine lays in peices in a box on my bench. lol i never did get around to blowing it up, i just bought the epic. ( which is a kickass mill, everyone should get one. its the best smallblock ever)
 
the easiest way is to run with the airfilter off in a off road environment. good luck killing ur engine.lol

But idont know about the airfilter thing though because if his dad has some guy that is good in rc and intelligent. That could be bad to take the air filter off because you will be able to tell the engine was dead because of the big scraps. So just lean that thing up as much as you can and just drive around and hold it full throttle till it blows up. Easy as can be.
 
u will also be able to tell if the engine was running too lean by discoloration on the top of the piston and the cooling head.
